The behind-the-scenes story of the investigation that shook America to its core — the Mueller investigation that presented all the evidence of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election — as told by Robert Mueller’s closest colleagues, including never-before-revealed details into how the team investigated Putin’s campaign to favor candidate Donald Trump and Trump’s efforts to interfere in the investigation. Fewer than four months into the Trump presidency, former FBI Director Robert S. Mueller, III, was called by the Department of Justice to serve as special counsel. Mueller’s primary task: to investigate Russian interference in the 2016 election – an operation intended to make Donald Trump president – and any links this operation might have had to the Trump campaign. Mueller’s other task: to determine whether the president himself had interfered in the investigation of Russia’s actions. Interference is the inside story of the Mueller investigation, told for the first time by Mueller’s leadership team. It completes and corrects the historical record of the only federal criminal investigation of President Trump while he was in office.
